Terms and definitions 5 JCM_MN_GL_PM_ver01.0 Terms Definitions BEMS BEMS is a computer system designed to recognize the status of energy use within indoor environments in commercial buildings and so forth using; measurement/gauging, control, and monitoring devices; analysis, diagnosis, and data storage equipment in an attempt to “control” energy consuming operations of equipment and facilities in these structures. Furthermore, if the system is utilized for “visualization" only, it is not to be directly used for emission reductions. Therefore, such project is not to be included in this methodology ・ Please provide definitions of key terms that are used in the proposed methodology. C. Summary of the methodology Items GHG emission measures Summary reduction Building energy management system (BEMS) that improves the efficiency of energy consumption for existing buildings by monitoring and regulating electricity and fuel consumption. Calculation of emissions reference Reference emissions is calculated on the basis of project emissions derived from monitored fuel and electricity consumption, under the assumption that certain percentage of energy consumption is decreased through introduction of BEMS. The BaU scenario assumes that BEMS will not be introduced in Mongolia, which is justified since there are currently no plans to introduce BEMS. In the methodology, the rates of emission reductions through various BEMS measures are fixed at a rate lower than those commonly observed. Therefore, the methodology results in a net reduction of emissions, since reference emissions are lower than BaU emissions. Calculation of project Project emissions are calculated on the basis of monitored 6 JCM_MN_GL_PM_ver01.0 emissions electricity and fuel consumption. Monitoring parameters Electricity and fuel consumption are monitored. ・ Please summarize the key elements of the proposed methodology, including brief description on: ・ GHG emission reduction measures; ・ How the proposed methodology calculates the reference emissions; ・ How the proposed methodology calculates the project emissions; ・ Key monitoring parameters and methods. D. Eligibility criteria This methodology is applicable to projects that satisfy all of the following criteria. Criterion 1 Energy Management System is to be introduced in already existing buildings. Criterion 2 The operation and control of equipment and facilities to reduce energy consumption for indoor environments are to be carried out by Energy Management System itself, not just upgrading equipments for energy consumption. Criterion 3 Be able to identify all energy consumption in the building(s) having equipment controlled by Energy Management System. ・ Eligibility criteria are those that can be examined objectively. ・ Eligibility criteria include: ・ Characteristics to identify the measures (e.g. technology, product, or service) applied to the methodology; ・ Conditions that are necessary in order to enable robust calculation of GHG emission reductions by the algorithm contained in the methodology, e.g. the situation before the implementation of the measure, in cases where reference emissions is calculated on the basis of historical performance of the facility. ・ Eligibility criteria should be, to the extent possible, those that can be ascertained upon validation, i.e. eligibility criteria should avoid those which need to be monitored ex post. For example, actual performance of a measure should not be included as eligibility criteria, since it is not certain at the validation whether the stated performance can be achieved. On the other hand, performance as defined by nameplate figures can be included as eligibility criteria since it can be readily checked upon validation. ・ Eligibility criteria may be represented by: 7 JCM_MN_GL_PM_ver01.0 ・ Certain technology (e.g. ultra supercritical coal fired power plants); ・ Certain technology with a design efficiency or performance indicator above a certain threshold (e.g. a power plant with a thermal efficiency above X%); ・ Certain sector to which the measure is applied. E. Emission Sources and GHG types The emission sources include all the following GHG emission sources and GHG types in the building to which BEMS is applied. Reference emissions Emission sources GHG types Electricity consumption by lighting CO2 Electricity consumption by air conditioner CO2 Diesel fuel consumption by boiler CO2 Electricity consumption by fan CO2 Electricity consumption by ICT equipments CO2 N/A N/A N/A N/A Project emissions Emission sources GHG types Electricity consumption by lighting CO2 Electricity consumption by air conditioner CO2 Diesel fuel consumption by boiler CO2 Electricity consumption by fan CO2 Electricity consumption by ICT equipments CO2 N/A N/A N/A N/A ・ Please identify all GHG emissions by sources that are significant and reasonably attributable to the JCM project. ・ If deemed appropriate, please explain whether any sources related to the reference emissions or the project emissions have been excluded, and if so, justify their exclusion. ・ Upstream emissions may be excluded unless they are deemed to be significant. F. Establishment and calculation of reference emissions 8 JCM_MN_GL_PM_ver01.0 F.1. Establishment of reference emissions Reference emissions is calculated on the basis of project emissions derived from monitored fuel and electricity consumption, under the assumption that certain percentage of energy consumption is decreased through introduction of BEMS. The BaU emissions assume that the emissions when BEMS will not be introduced in Mongolia, which is justified since there are currently no plans to introduce BEMS. In the methodology, the rates of emission reductions through various BEMS measures are fixed at a rate lower than those commonly observed. Therefore, the methodology results in a net reduction of emissions, since reference emissions are lower than the BaU emissions. F.2. Calculation of reference emissions REy = ( PEC,y * EFe,y + Σ( PFCi,y * NCVy * EFCO2,f,i,y)) / (100% - EERj) REy Reference CO2 emissions during the period of year y [tCO2/y] PECy Project electricity consumption by applicable equipment in year y [MWh/y] EFe,y CO2 emissions factor of electricity in year y [tCO2/MWh] PFCi,y Project consumption of fossil fuel i of the applicable equipment in year y[kl, t, 1000 Nm3/y] NCVy Net calorific value of fossil fuel i (diesel, kerosene, natural gas, etc.) in year y [GJ/kl, t, 1000 Nm3] *Any default value (XX GJ/kl, t, 1000 Nm3) or specific value for the project that the project participants measure is available.

Provide also a description of how and why the reference emissions are below the BaU emissions. ・ Reference emissions may be derived from: ・ The current situation and performance; ・ Average historical performance; ・ Performance of similar products and technologies which compete with the project technology; ・ Legal requirements; ・ Voluntary standards and targets; ・ Best available technology of Mongolia. ・ Please elaborate the method to calculate the reference emissions. Please be specific and complete, so that the procedure can be carried out in an unambiguous way, replicated, and subjected to assessment and verification: ・ Please explain the underlying rationale for the method to calculate (e.g. marginal vs. average, etc.); ・ Please use consistent variables, equation formats, subscripts, etc.; ・ Please number all equations in the Proposed Methodology Form; ・ Please define all variables, with units indicated; ・ Please justify the conservativeness of the method to calculate. ・ Please elaborate all parameters, coefficients, and variables used in the calculation of reference emissions: ・ For those values that are provided in the methodology: ・ Please clearly indicate the precise references from which these values are taken (e.g. official statistics, IPCC Guidelines, commercial and scientific literature); ・ Justify the conservativeness of the values provided. ・ For those values that are to be provided by the project participants, please clearly indicate how the values are to be selected and justified, for example, by explaining: ・ What types of sources are suitable (official statistics, expert judgment, proprietary data, IPCC Guidelines, commercial and scientific literature, etc.); 10 JCM_MN_GL_PM_ver01.0 ・ The vintage of data that is suitable; ・ What spatial level of data is suitable (local, regional, national, international); ・ How conservativeness of the values is to be ensured. ・ For all data to be monitored or recorded by the project participants, please specify the procedures to be followed if expected data are unavailable. For instance, the methodology could point to a preferred data source, and indicate a priority order for use of additional data and/or fall back data sources to preferred sources (e.g. private, international statistics, etc.). ・ Please note any parameters, coefficients, variables, etc. that are used to calculate reference emissions but should be obtained through monitoring. ・ Please explain any parts of the method to calculate that are not self-evident. Provide references as necessary. Explain implicit and explicit key assumptions in a transparent manner. ・ When referring to and/or making use of life cycle analysis (LCAs) and/or LCA tools, methodology proponents provide, in a transparent manner, all equations, parameterizations and assumptions used in the LCA. For example, this could be accomplished by highlighting the relevant sections in an attached copy of the referenced LCA. ・ The most recent IPCC default values may be used as necessary, when country or project specific data are not available or difficult to obtain. ・ Methodologies requiring sampling as a part of monitoring clearly indicate the sampling method, statistical treatment of sampled data (e.g. confidence level, margin of error). A useful reference is the statistical treatment of sampled data for large scale CDM project activities in latest version of “Standard for Sampling And Surveys For CDM Project Activities and Programme of Activities” for large-scale CDM project activities. ・ Emission reductions from reduced consumption of international transport fuels cannot be claimed under the JCM.
